Noise and Flame
Did you over stop to consider what
a blessing will be bestoed On human
ity whon the present movement for
safe and saue. Fourth of July fchrystal
izes public sentiment id to abolishing
the present enfttdtu of noise and flame,
with its sacrlflcbof hutnun life hud its'
useless loss of rtfdpert "bjr'flrc. " ri
There is much'tb'bo'domrtoellmiriatol
the belief th4t "only'by sonie'barbar-j

.nothing of the rierve'raekiug noise'' of
me jja-ic yearn, can wu snow our patriot
ism. JDhe experience of the cities that
,ha veined fesfton iu the mutter of us-
king rcd;llrc-rid powder has proved so
pleaWiiig tlifit there is little likelihood'
of.tuelr ever going back to the old
way of- allowing every small boy to
menace the lives and property of
others, just to demonstrate that ho is
true amorican.
, Looking at tho matter from tho
standpoint of the lire underwriters, it
seems tho height of follcy to pass laws
and ordinances rogulating the storage
of every kind of combustablcs and
prescribing the amount of powder or
gasoline a dealer may keep, yet per
mit any one to shoot firecrackers, can
non, Homau Candles, etc., at will.
Last year the lire loss so far as tho
records on the subject show, churgablo
to Fourth of July celebrations amount
ed to $1,140,035:00. Wo mean that in
tho amount reported up to tho second
morning af tor the Fourth. It Is safe
to say that ut least a hulf million nioro
was not roportod.
When we take into consideration
the number of lives lost and the in
juries resulting from the barbariouB
and murderous features of the Fourth,
it is no wonder that there is a huo and
a cry that it is tirno to make a change.
A careful record of tho killed and In
jured for tho past ten years will open
nlmost any one's eyes. They include
only tho accidents reported up to tho
same hour of tho morning of the
second day aftor the fourth.
From 1900 to 1000 tho total dead is 537;
from 1000 to lOOOHhe total injured is
IJO.r.lO.
When wc take note of tho tremend
ous enthusiasm this National holiday
seoms to arouse, It sooms odd, that
people do nottlcnow moro about fire
works and such things. It Is safo to
Bay that outsldo of tho moio namo
flro orackers, rockets, Roman candlos,
pin wheels, otc., tho average poisons

Wo do not manufacture our llro crack
ers. Through all her wais and trou
bles China has maintained her mono
poly on tliisiudustry. When you light
a bunch of crackers bear In mind that
thoy have traveled many thousands of
miles. We make nearly every thing
oIbc but not this lino of goods.
Tho chemical ingrcdlimts of tiro
works are almost unknown to all but
tho makers. Chlorate of potush, on
of the highest explosives known, to
9 denco, has taken the place of gun
P lwder and as this substance will ex2
piodo through light friction, it is more
ddltigerous than dynamite. The larg
est cannon crackers contain two-thirds
ounce of chlorate, one third ounce of
sulphur, t,nd a small amount of chnr
OQil.,,Last Fourth of July one of
thj-'se "murderers" exploded while
Ubdena man's arm, killing him almost
Instantly and driving his watch from
hU vest pocket Into n telegraph polo
to the depth of one inch.
Toy balloons look innocent enough,
blit they aro dangerous, not to the
ouo who sends them up, perhaps, but
tho torch of shavings and rosin which
generates the gas that inllates them
blazes from nine to twenty minutes.
Tho paper balloons very often take
fire iu mid-air and tho lighted torch
may fall and ignite a shingle roof or
pile of rubbish. Last summer Louis
ville, Ky,, and JeffersouvHle, hid.,
had several fires from this origin, tho
balloons having boon sent up from
Louisville.
Tho small torpedo contains wafor
of chlorate of potash, and gravel,
while the largest variety contains
chlorate phosphorus, and chloride of
autimoney. Ouo manufacturer is us
ing fnlmi nate of inurenry, wJi Ich makes
the explosive power almost an great
aadyaamlte. These noise makers have
ben,reaponHlble for many dcathsund
accidents, and have .also turned valu-.
able properties into ban-fires,, cawBed

blab aud packing material in the buVe
BJnt. A now kind of tire works, known n
A "nan of-a-gun" has recently made'
its appearance, and it would Kectn as
though it tried to live up to its name
on uU occasions. It is made of pieces
of chlorate of potasht tied together
with a fuse, aud makes about twenty
explosions when stepped upon. It is
particularly apt to ignite the dress of
any lady who may happen to tread
upon tho abominable thing. As it is
usually exploded on tho sido walk,
there Is great liability of pieces fall
ing into uir ways or through cellar
windows, and setting tiro to tho rub
bish usually found in such places.
The prettiest Tiro works aro tho least
dangerous. Mines, fountains, flower
pots, aud sparklers are very beautiful,
and few pooploor buildings are burned
by them. Beware ot tho whistling
fire works, as these eontaln picrato of
potash and will oxplodo by slight frict
ion. A wisely drafted and well enforced
qjtv ordinance, backed by uu unmis
takable public sentiment, will prevent
much of tho rowdyism, masquerading
as patriotism which iu other years has
mount den' h, injury and property loss.
Tho wisdom of prohibiting tho sale of
high explosives and noise making con
trivances has beon demonstrated to
nuipy people who had como to regard
tho Fourth of July as a painful period
oi heathenish uproar and who aro
gratoful for tho rolief they found in a
"dqbrutallzed" celebration.
With the barbarities dominated
frqtn the celebration there is an oppor
tunity to mum up u sentiment for n
proper observance of the greatest pa
triotic day of tho yoar. An observance
which will bo sane, safe and fitting, in
hooping with tho roal and high signi
ficance of July Fourth.
